Boo!!

In about 20 minutes it will be Halloween, the best holiday ever! I am so ready for the awesomeness! Here's an outline of some of the cool things that will be happening:

• I get to wake up and put on a totally cool costume (except for the facepaint; I better wait until after fitness for that)
• Orchestra: party!
• At 3: party!
• With Aria after school: party!
• With Aria: trick-or-treat (a.k.a. candy party!)
• At this time I will now be in possession of a lot of candy. And all my homework will be done, hopefully...

I have to enjoy these kinds of kid experiences now before I go off to college...

Answer me in one word.

I've been working a lot on college apps today. While stopping by Carnegie Mellon's website to find their policy on supplemental teacher recommendations, I noticed that it got totally remade! FINALLY! It used to be one of the lamest college websites ever, but now it looks pretty good. I suppose it's worth noting that the undergraduate site hasn't changed, but that looks all right anyway.

After dinner, I'm not going to the dance, but I suppose I will stop by Luke's house to buy his sister's stuff. By Thanksgiving, I'll be done with all of my college app stuff (my dad made that decision), so I'll be able to do fun stuff even more often.

Everything I know about you I learned on the Internets

I joined Facebook yesterday. People have been trying to convince me to do this for awhile, but I guess it was TANYA who finally convinced me. Maybe she just made me realize that I was not joining Facebook for no reason.

Okay I better get some stuff done...

learning to trust your teammates

I have not posted in awhile. This is mostly because I have been fairly busy lately. Last weekend, I went to Indianapolis to get interviewed by a University of Rochester guy. That was kind of cool. (I also went shopping.) The weekend before that, I stayed overnight at Grinnell. At the moment, my college list looks like this (in order of preference):

1. Carnegie Mellon
2. University of Rochester
3. University of Illinois
4. Wash U (a distant fourth)
5. Grinnell

There are some days when I really want to go to one of my top three... but most days I want to go to CMU the most.

Anyway. Tonight was Senior Night for volleyball. It was ridiculous. Perhaps sometime I will scan in part of the program because everything about me is absolutely correct.
